A Legacy

Built on Trust

For more than five decades, MALU has built its reputation on quality, integrity and a commitment to excellence. As a family-owned business, we have grown from humble beginnings into one of the trusted pork suppliers, serving customers across the country with premium pork products.

At Malu Pork , every product reflects our dedication to responsible farming, quality production and lasting relationships built on trust.

WHY OUR STORY MATTERS

At MALU, our story is about more than producing pork. It is about creating lasting value for our customers, employees and communities through responsible farming and sustainable business practices.

Every decision we make is guided by a commitment to quality, animal welfare and continuous improvement. By maintaining control throughout the entire production process, we are able to consistently deliver products our customers can trust.

HOW MALU BEGAN

The MALU journey began in 1967 when Charles and Radeun Malherbe purchased Farm Pax on the banks of the Vaal River.

Driven by hard work, determination and a passion for agriculture, the business steadily expanded its operations and invested in modern farming practices. Over the decades, MALU evolved into a fully integrated pork producer, managing every stage of production from feed manufacturing to processing and distribution.

Today, MALU remains proudly family-owned and continues to serve customers throughout South Africa with the same dedication to quality that shaped its foundation.

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE

From humble beginnings to becoming a trusted name in the South African pork industry, MALU continues to grow while staying true to the values that shaped our success.

Today, we combine generations of farming knowledge with modern production practices, advanced facilities and a commitment to continuous improvement. By investing in our people, our operations and sustainable farming practices, we ensure that every product reflects the quality and care our customers have come to expect.

As we look ahead, our focus remains unchanged: delivering premium pork products, building lasting relationships and carrying the MALU legacy forward for generations to come.

SUSTAINABILITY

At MALU, sustainability is an ongoing commitment. Through responsible farming practices and innovative waste management systems, we continually seek ways to minimise our environmental impact while supporting long-term agricultural growth.
Waste generated through farming operations is repurposed into organic fertiliser, helping improve soil health and reduce waste across the value chain.

Waste reduced, Value returned.

Our agricultural operations form the foundation of the MALU value chain. With more than 1,000 hectares of irrigated farmland, we produce high-quality crops that support our feed production and contribute to long-term sustainability.
This integrated approach allows us to maintain greater control over quality and supply while supporting efficient farming practices.
